The Beatles announce The Christmas Records 7″ vinyl box set

The Beatles are releasing a 7″ vinyl box set of their Christmas fan club singles.

The Beatles’ holiday recordings were originally pressed on flexi discs and mailed to fan club members each December. Never previously released beyond the fan club, The Beatles’ seven holiday messages have been pressed on seven-inch colored vinyl singles for The Christmas Records box set.

The box set – released on December 15 by Apple Corps Ltd./Capitol/UMe – is accompanied by a 16-page booklet with recording notes and reproductions of the fan club’s National Newsletters, which were mailed to members with the holiday records.
